[Roadsters] V8 Datsun Roadster - what have I done?!

[roadstergb at aol.com]

Sorry I meant the diff - it has a Ford autobox but a Datsun diff - no idea what ratios it has or even what shape it's in. Eric's site is certainly an eye opener.

Greetings from England..

any idea what gearbox is in it?  You sound as if you think it's got the Datsun unit still in it, which would surprise me.
